Nice place for the price, staff was friendly, however this is not “hotel blu”, this is a Motel 6. Was confused when I pulled in. Room itself was clean, some things were broken like the security latch on the door, but overall good value.

The hotel was clean and well priced. It was quiet and comfortable. What I did not like at all was the bait and switch. I booked a hotel called "Blu" and stayed at a Motel 6. Not cool.

The lock and door frame on room 222 was busted. No security latch available and you could look right into the room along that frame. The signage still says Motel 6 on the outside which was a little confusing. Maybe, the Hotels.com site should say something about that to people reserving that place.

This property is a Motel 6. Apparently the brand is changing from Motel 6 to Hotel Blu. All the signage on the property says Motel 6. When I booked the room on Expedia, nowhere did it state that the property was a Motel 6. Had I known it was a Motel 6, I would never have booked the room. This is deceptive. The room is what you would expect from a Motel 6, spartan and unclean.

The couch was 6 inches off the floor so hard to sit on. The TV was very small. The was no shampoo or conditioner. The matress slide too freely on the bed. The matress was very comfortable. Water was nice and hot. Tub was very slippery.

Negative from the get-go. This is a motel 6 not a hotel Blu. Loud music. Two floors up came into my room. It's all about the Bass. Chair was unusable. It's been worn out. Shabby and run down this place. Bait and switch again, not a Hotel Blu.

Hotel was advertised as Hotel Blu, but the sign says Motel 6, which was very confusing.When trying to find the hotel. When checking in, I stood at the counter for over 5 minutes before the clerk who was sitting right there acknowledged me. The room was very dirty and they didnt have a hair dryer. The only thing they offered in the morning was coffee. That was completely watered down. To about half the amount of a normal cup of coffee.
